[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 64074, member: 2852"] Not to impose anything, but are you sure you were getting 3825? What kind of chrono are you using and how far from the muzzle is it? Cloudy day or sunny? My .22-.284 had a 29" barrel and it ruined primer pockets at anything over 3500. I could push it to 3650 but accuracy was non-existent. I was shooting 80 Bergers with 50 to 52 grains of RL 25 depending upon the lot in a Norma case. It was also a tight neck. Anyway, after about 950 rounds, it started blowing up Bergers so I switched to 80 grain Sierra MK's. They lasted about another 60 rounds until they blew up. Game over. Went to the 6.5-.284 and have never looked back! [/QUOTE]
